I've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm reading all of these threads about an apparent new coaster for 2009, which may or may not be true, but it doesn't make any sense.

First of all, there isn't enough land back there, and don't you think that a loud chain lift would be too loud and be overpowering over the shows in the International Showplace? Plus, don't you think that there is a lot better prime land for a big massive steel coaster as people are saying?

I've heard rumors of what's going there, but I think the most likely one is a place where it's always Friday.

Just some food for thought...

Well, from the photos, the construction comes right up to International Showplace. The construction continues over to where Swan Lake used to be. Seems to be a very good amount of land between the two.

This discussion REALLY belongs in that thread cited in post 2. That being said, WHAT loud coaster chain? Everything isn't Top Gun or Son of Beast anymore. El Toro's lift is silent, Nitro's can barely be heard and I have never heard a chain on Flight of Fear.

Wonder where this used coaster is coming from?
